Hi, My brother Matthew and I will be running our first half-marathon at the Standard Chartered HK Marathon on Jan 25th. We have been running 8k and 10k each weekend, but have never ran anywhere near 20k. In fact we are falling well short of our "training targets" - no surprise - but hope to "wing" it on the day and make it past the torturous Western tunnel back to the HK side and to the finish in Victoria Park! We'd like to take this opportunity to raise money for the less fortunate and have selected ORBIS as our charity. This is a great cause to help the blind and visually impaired - and moreover Standard Chartered has pledged to match all donations dollar for dollar. Through simplygiving.com you can make safe and secure donations to sponsor me. The proceeds of your support are immediately sent directly to my charity. Please support my brother and I in our first ever half-marathon - every little counts! Best wishes, Simon & Matthew
